Export time off calendar to Google or Outlook

Apple Calendar

1. Click on the Time Off menu icon
2. Use the Filter menu to narrow the selection, for example, to narrow the view to future requests from a given team. Whatever view you select will be what you export.
3. Click Export and then To iCal 
4. Select ALL of the address and copy it.
5. In Calendar, select New Calendar Subscription in the File menu
6. Paste the address you copied earlier into the Calendar URL box.
7. Select an Auto-refresh frequency; typically every hour or every day (there’s usually no need for more frequent updates unless you have lots of staff and they’re furiously booking lots of time off)
8. Now the selected time off requests will appear as all-day events in your calendar.

Google Calendar

1. Click on the Time Off menu icon
2. Use the Filter menu to narrow the selection, for example, to narrow the view to future requests from a given team. Whatever view you select will be what you export.

7. Select Add by URL from the menu
8.  Paste the address your copied earlier into the URL box.
9. Note: Google only updates iCal calendars once a day. This means that changes in time offs won’t show up for up to 24 hours. This is a Google issue not a Turbine bug.
